Customer Case: Alpro

We delivered a special reach stacker to Alpro, a company specializing in food and drink products in Wevelgem, Belgium. Alpro had very special requirements, needing a barge handler but having very serious limitations on ground pressure.

Alpro focuses strongly on safety and green technology. This was one of the first lift trucks with AdBlue technology delivered to Belgium. Due to the limitations on ground pressure, we delivered an SMV 4542 TBX4 BH reach stacker with a 7500 mm wheelbase and a larger than standard jack plate to reduce ground pressure. It’s equipped with a heavy-duty boom for barge handling. It has many safety extras: reverse distance control, laser-based distance measuring system, lots of extra lamps, and so on. The customer is very satisfied with the truck and the advice and support given during the purchasing procedure. We were the only manufacturer that could supply this kind of custom-built machine.
